Chapter Twenty Six

Aaliyah's POV

As I hear the screeching sounds of Max's tyre drive into the apartment, I know something is really odd about his presence at home immediately after his outing.

I expect that he will join Iris and Mabel wherever they are trying to shop for the wedding, rather than come home all by himself.

I was walking around in the parlour when I peep through the curtains to find out that he's exactly the one who has just arrived.

I immediately run up to my room and stay quietly on my bed.

Their heavy footsteps will not let me remain inside without being curious about how well they keep trooping into Max's study room.

“You shouldn't have allowed that mess to be seen by the boss! This is on you, and you better fucking do something about it before the boss finds out the truth!” I hear one of the guards yelling in a very low voice at themselves as they try to control themselves.

“How did you expect me to have known? Amato never told me that was part of the things

    Chapter Fifty-TwoAaliyah's POVI do not blame the driver for outrightly denying the act of even trying to render any form of help to Max.As much as I know the consequences of doing that, I still want to proceed with it, but he seems to be more cautious of it, and he doesn't want to risk putting his life in danger. “I'm not asking. We have to help him right now!” I yell at him, and I don't know if it's just the pressure to make sure things don't go south with me just looking or it's just the urgency I feel to help.“This is a terrible mistake we are making. This is a terrible mistake we are making.” The driver says and starts the car. His headlights are turned on brightly as he drives towards them without questioning me any further. I must say the man is audacious too. He also is very good at driving this vehicle. I feel good that he's the one I'm having to work with because he makes the whole process easier to achieve with his driving skills. We get to where Max and his men are

    Chapter Fifty-OneAaliyah's POVThis is the last place I'm expecting them to be in.Actually, I thought they were about to have an attack on someone, but it doesn't seem like that's what is going to happen in an open place like this. “Can you please wait for me?” I ask the driver as I open the door. “Things might get bloody with how they are doing over here. You will really need to be careful, and you have to pay me first for getting you here straight.”“Fine, how much do you want?” I ask him, bringing out my purse so I can quickly give him the money in my purse. “One hundred and fifty bucks.” I look at him in the face again. I had not expected it to be that much, but I did not hesitate to put my hand inside my purse and hand it over to him because I know why his charge is ridiculous.“Oh, shit!” I fear what will happen as I get down to walk closer to where Max's men are to have a closer look at what's going on.I can barely see Max, but I hear his voice clearly.I run through the

    Chapter FiftyAaliyah's POVI watch the vehicle of Max and his guards trooping out of the estate gate completely before my taxi decides to start following after them.“These are the people we are following?” The driver asks, surprised. His voice grows in concern, like he is sure the idea of following after them isn't a good one, but he did not decide not to follow them. Instead, he adds, “You will have to pay me more if we survive following them without getting caught.”Fair deal, I think. I didn't even bother bargaining with him as we started the ride. If I had not had the opportunity of staying with Iris and Max, I sure wouldn't have been able to just take that, but I now have extra money I didn't work for, so money isn't part of any problem I am bothered about. We trail them down, and the driver seems to be skilled at it with how he avoids being directly behind them while we are on the highway but keeps trailing them close enough that we don't miss them at all. They drive into

    Chapter Forty-NineAaliyah's POVDespite how mad I feel, I cannot ignore the deep interest I feel towards knowing what news exactly that Amato has to pass across to Max that makes him look that serious.I stop by the staircase to see if I could hear snippets of what their discussion was about. “Boss. The update is here already. You need to see this. We might have to move faster than we thought.”I can see through the railings as I slow down my steps. Max looks into the phone and begins to scroll slowly. The irritable scowl on his face deepens into one that is fully wicked. “Get the boys ready! Those motherfuckers! They think they can mess with me!” Max stands up from his seat, pushing the chair back with the back of his leg.Amato lifts the chair totally, allowing him to see a route to leave the dining room. I immediately walk faster and head up to my room.I need to track them down.My instincts keep telling me as much as I don't want to do that. I hear their footsteps as they

    Chapter Forty-EightAaliyah's POV I grab a tissue that lies on the table and use it judiciously to clean the soap off my hands. “Ughhh! This is such a mess.” I nag as I pack up the tissue and toss it into the dustbin. Then I hear the water rushing out of the washing hand basin tap. I must have left it open.I roll my eyes as I walk back to the toilet to wash my hand with the running water and lock it. I don't know how today's going to be. I don't even know where the fuck I want to go to. I search my phone, and I find an art gallery that is opening their store. I think it might be really nice for me to feed my eyes with really nice drawings or paintings. I honestly don't know what to expect anyway. I stare at the clock and decide that I will have my bath and then prepare to leave around eleven. The way I'm not bothered about what to wear like I normally used to be is quite interesting, and that's because of the great privileges I get to have, like having many clothes shopped f

    Chapter Forty-SevenAaliyah's POV “You were supposed to always keep me updated on whatever is going on in that house, but I seem to be a ghost now. Uhhn?” Sofiyyah says. It's quite alright that she will feel displeased by my actions anyway, and I know I need to do better.“I won't lie, it's been really hard doing anything right here. I've just been making so many decisions, and I'm not even sure if my plan to reveal the truth about Maximiliano Bianchi is the right thing to do at this moment.”I couldn't hold it in anymore, and Soffy is the one person I feel can really tell me if I'm truly just obsessing over this issue or if I'm doing the right thing. “Wait, wait, wait. Hold up a minute. Is that really self-doubt I'm sensing?” I can imagine the way Sofiyyah would be staring at me if she was sitting next to me. “You can't afford this level of self-doubt. I know you knew this wasn't going to be easy in the first place, and you decided to still do this because you want what's best t
